My New Wheels

After 2 years I'm finally getting to exchange my defective KMC wheels. These are the new hyper black wheels that I ordered. What do you think?



Old wheels...



This is the second wheel that the chrome lip is falling out...the other one came out completely.

the term "ghetto" springs to mind. Sorry bud. To each his own, though. If you like 'em ROCK ON!!! It's a nice looking wheel, I just don't swing that way.

Nice wheels.. that's crazy your old wheels are failing so hard, I thought they looked nice

Seriously though, those new wheels look ok, but I think a set more similar to your older wheels might actually look nicer.. I think a little chrome on your wheels actually makes them look pretty good, it accents the rest of the chrome on your truck.

Didnt think it would be possible for me to say it, but those new wheels are too black..

anywho.. I'm sure you know what you're doin, whatever makes ya happy!

It just doesn't fly right on a 4x4... Those wheels would look better on a lowered truck...

if you're a long horn fan, your opinion doesn't matter anyways.
